Abstract

A system comprising a robot and a robot base station is described. The processor of the robot base station is configured to receive information about a potential water leak and cause transmission of a first command to cause the robot to traverse an area associated with the potential water leak. The processor of the robot is configured to receive the first command from the robot base station, cause the robot to traverse the area associated with the potential water leak, and determine, using at least a sensor, that a liquid corresponding to the potential water leak is present in the area. Further, the processor of the robot is further configured to determine information about the liquid and cause transmission of a first indication to the robot base station, where the first indication indicates that the liquid is present in the area and the information about the liquid.
